Old gent struggling.
End-of-day confusion.
An impeccable best black suit.
The funeral needed it.
Relatives help him get comfortable.
There’s plenty of kindness and love.
But an irreplaceable friend’s gone
And there aren’t many left.
He knows living every day
With loathed loneliness for company
Blights everything.
He also knows he can’t stop time.
